This guide was developed to assist adult education program directors and staff to integrate technology into their programs. Adapted from the original guidebook developed by the Merrimack Education Center's Adult Education Computer Applications Project, it focuses on major considerations in matching computer applications with instructional program goals. The guide is organized according to the four major steps in the process: (1) preliminary planning activities; (2) planning computer applications with an emphasis on selecting software for the instructional process; (3) hardware (equipment) considerations; and (4) planning for implementation. Appendixes to the guide contain a list of resources, a list of software especially useful for adult education applications, a software evaluation form, a software review guide order blank, and a bibliography. The guidebook can be used as a stand-alone manual or as part of a staff development program. (KC)
